Sturm’s high-end penalty killing, as well as his ability in the face-off circle (51.1 percent in 15 games with Florida during the regular season), was a big reason why the Panthers acquired him from the Sharks prior to the Trade Deadline.

Max Pacioretty and Max Domi each had a goal and an assist for the Toronto Maple Leafs in a 4-3 win against the Florida Panthers.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have taken a 2-0 series lead over the Florida Panthers with a 4-3 win in Game 2. A back-and-forth contest saw the Panthers take early leads of 1-0 and 2-1, but goals from William Nylander and Max Domi in the second period gave the Leafs their first lead of the night.
